I thought about going with the Metzlers.  I picked the Conti Milestones though because they're supposed to have a stiffer sidewall, so that should help a little with the load carrying capabilities.  Since my wife and I are "healthy" sized people, and we want to do some touring, I thought this might be good.

I love the look of the drifter with whitewalls. Nice work.  I replace the tires on my bikes FREQUENTLY... they are simply too important to handling and safety. (And, I've spent the night on the side of the road because I tried to squeeze out a few more miles on a rear tire!)

Cheers.

Looking good!!! Those whitewalls really set her off. Nice aggressive tread pattern too!!

Looking good man. I have to get skins for mine to. Still running the original Dunlops with 20000 miles. I think i'm going for Metlers this time around. Just fired mine up tonite. Started right up with a few cranks. Didn't even have to charge the battery. Sitting since late last october. Our riding season is short here.

Guess what!

I got my bike back today!  The shop has had it a few weeks doing a bunch of stuff.  Brakes, seals, tires, electrical........

Those tires make a world of difference in the handling.  And they look fantastic!  Check out the before & after.........
